Lightbulb!

Monday, one of my professors was talking about her own life and something that her father said to her that kept her motivated to get her doctorate at her age (she never said how old she is... or was when she got it.) Anyway, when she made a comment to her dad that she would be x years old by the time she got it, her dad said, "Well you're gonna be that old anyway... might as well be that old with a doctorate."

OMGingerbread! I so needed to hear that! That is how I have been feeling because I did not go straight to college after high school. Every time I get a set back I always think.... omgingersnap I'm gonna be 30 before I finish my bachelors...

Well you know what? Lord willing, I am gonna be 30 anyway. I might as well be 30 with a bachelors degree!

I love wisdom that only comes with age. You will not read that in a book!

Lemons

I really love fresh lemons in my water. More and more restaurants are doing away with freshly cut lemons and replacing them with packets of lemon juice concentrate.

It is not the same!

It does not taste the same!

I want my lemons back!

Easter

I usually don' t blog about religion... but,

I am so happy that I belong to a church that focuses on the Resurrection rather than the death of Jesus Christ. Yesterday was wonderful!

The end.

Tomorrow is

Earth Day!!!!

My friends and family tease me about my dedication to recycling, but I think I can handle that. :) Take care of our earth, it's the only one we have.

Happy Earth Day!

And have a great Good Friday! :)

Happy 4:20!

Today is April 20th, better know as 4:20 in stoner land. Although I don't celebrate this holiday (I'm drug free!) I have a lot of friends that do so

Happy 4:20!

Anyway, today has been a FANTABULOUS day at work! Two students that have been trying to pass the GED test for years finally got enough points today! Yay! Not only did they both pass, but they also scored higher on today's test than they have on any other test!

Maybe they did a little celebrating before they took their tests this morning...

You know...

I'm kidding but I couldn't pass that one up. I am really happy for our new graduates though!

Random Rant

 Listening to the news this morning upset me so I have to get this off of my chest. I was looking for a picture to post along with my rant, but that further pissed me off.

I do not understand why racists connect black to monkeys. I have yet to see a monkey with nappy hair.

The end.

You really need to follow this chick!

Okay, so I entered a contest on her blog that will take place AFTER she gets 1000 followers and I am so ready to win! If you are a curvy and stylish girl, she is full of fashion tips and inspiration so you, like, um, really need to follow her blog. PLUS, she is from Brunswick! So follow her blog already, ok?

Thanks!

Alone... and not so alone

The 3rd day of loneliness.

My husband is gone for the entire week on business AND my coworker to a vacation this week. Not only am I alone at home, but I am alone in the office as well. Ugh.

My husband did, however, teach me who to load, unload, and shoot a rifle before he left. *evil laugh*

Well, I am not really alone at home because, apparently, a SUPER RAT has decided to keep me company this week.

My Super Rat

I haven't slept well all week because when hubz is away I sleep very lightly. On top of that SuperRat is ravaging my home! Night One: I put down one box of rat poison and the rat ate it... and didn't die. Night Two: I put down two boxes of rat poison, the next morning BOTH boxes were missing. Not empty, missing, as in GONE. Also, a jar of peanut butter is missing. The whole jar. But SuperRat did leave the wrapper in the middle of my kitchen floor... I guess he is tauting me. Night Three: A whole shelf of spices were on the floor. I guess SuperRat is upset with me because I didn't buy him anymore poison, because he climbed onto my spice cabinet and threw my spices on the floor one by one. Ugh.

I think SuperRat is about to win, because I am seriously thinking about moving out until my husband comes home.

Or maybe I could play target practice with SuperRat...

Officially Irked

There is someone that works with me that tries to finish everyone's sentences when they are talking. For example, if I say, "I think we should have a meeting," my co-worker will say "meeting" at the exact same time that I do. I thought it was funny at first, but I am becoming more annoyed by this daily.

I digress.
